LOND : THURSDAY EVENING, JULY 5, 1838. Tile Morning Chronicle, yestcrLy, in a strainei and unfair ennunent on a !it tie p!easuntry of Lord BROUGHAM'S in the House of Lords on Tuesday evening, made it appear that tt e Noble Lord Lail I.or(r - IJU Ava his abs 6 ice. INclndy who knows Lord BROUGHAM will ever accuse bin of an wiwilliiisriss to attack his opponents to their flees, or of a willing *ll,m behipd their backs. But be that as it may, we are authorised to state - thatno pti-son.n whatever was meant oa Lord DURHAM, and that the Chronicle has shown a great deal more Malice and ill will by its comments towards a Noble Pecr, who was once one of its special favourites, than he ever showed to Lord DURHAM. In fact Lord BROUGHAM has, in the absence of Lord DURHAM, stood up to defend him in the Home of Peers, when his own relations and personal friends sat silent. Mr. PLUMPTRE'S Sunday Starvation Bill met last night with the fate it deserves. It was kicked cut of the House of Commons by a majdrity of twelve. We are delighted with this result, though we fear it will occasion the suc cessor of St. ANDREW many a pious pang, and compel him to derive his sole meagre consolation from the reflec tion that " virtue is its own reward." We trust in future Mr. PLU3IPTEE will have the good sense to con fine himself to worthy matters of legislation, and not go crusading and tilting—like Don QUIXOTTE with the wind-mills—against the old apple-women, and bakers, and cab-men of the metropolis. He may rely on it that nothing but ridicule and discomfiture will ever attend such a rencontre. The labouring classes of so ciety are not to be made pious by Act of Parliament. Their innate good-sense revolts against any thing like spiritual coercion, and more especially do they eschew the'Salnts' faVourite nostrum of Sunday starvation, having quite enough of it on the other six days of the week. When Mr. PLUMPTRE, and those silly zealots who vote with him, can bid the advancing tide recede, enchain the free winds, or arrest the march of the seasons, then will he be able—and not till then—to improve the religious and moral sense of the working: classesLof the community, by dint of Sabbath-restriction Acts. We insert entire the long notice which the Herald of to-day takes of our short article of yesterday on the Corn laws, and beg that our readers will peruse it before they peruse our reply. Supposing them to Lave done that, we say, that The Sun did not undertake to describe the argu ments of our " own economical party," but to refute a fal lacy of the Herald ; and that we thought only of expound ing a correct opinion, regardless of the " faith of the great fathers of political economy." We are responsible for our own assertions, not for theirs; and it was the business of the Herald, noticing our observations, to have combatted them, not the theories of political economy. Now, we must take the liberty of asserting, that through the long article of the Herald there is not a single word to disprove our position, that to abolish the Corn-laws would augment the real wages of labour. We made that assertion in the face of the Herald, because that journal pretends to be the great friend of the working classes, and in their name, and on their behalf to resist the abolition of the Corn-laws. It is bound there fore to disprove our position, and unless it do that it ought to come over to our side. Its remarks about the opinions of the economists and the Act of 1819, which now equally affects all classes, are wholly foreign to the point in dispute, and on them we shall not now bestow a single word. Although we are not directly interested in defending or explaining the views ascribed by the Herald to the political economists, there is not much difficult) in proving that there is no essential difference, at least in the results, between their views and ours. As expounded by the Herald, they all resolve into this, that the economists have advocated the repeal of the Corn-laws in order that the capitalists and.ma nufacturersof England should get labourat the same price,or as cheaply as it is obtained on the continent ; while our as sertion was and is, that the abolition of the Corn-laws would give more real wages, that is more food to the la bourers. Now, those two statements may be easily recon ciled. The abolition of the Corn-laws would place ar 6 sreater quantity of food at the command:ea our capitalists and manufacturers than at present. They would enter with the foreign manufacturer, into cothOtition for corn in the cheapest foreign market, and would enhance its price to him. If it did not actually equanze the-price which they and the foreign manufacturer wculd hav'e to pay fur food, it would have that tendency, and would place the two more nearly on a level than at present At the same time cur manu facturers would compete with one another for corn in the home market much less ke:nly, and they would in both markets get more corn for their money than at present. Obtaining, more: corn for their money, they would have an increased demand for labour, and would give more than at present of the increased quantity of corn which they obtained to the labourers. We do not pretend to conjecture in what proportions the increased quantity of food at a lower price, which would come under the com mand of the capitalist, would be divided between profit and wages ; but we have no doubt whatever that the aboli tion of the Corn-laws would augment both. Supposing that the reduction in the price of corn should only be 10 per cent., 2 or 3 per cent. or 5 per cent would be a rich reward to a manufacturer on his large capital, and an addition of 5 per cent. to the wages of labour would be a great boon to all the labouring classes. We yesterday de monstrated that the abolition would increase the real wages or rewards of labour ; and now, taking the statements of the Herald, we have shown that it would augment the profits of capital, and thus we have reconciled our " heresy" with the " pure faith of the great fathers of po litical economy." Nor would any parties lose a sum equal to the gains of the capitalists and the labourers by the abolition. The Corn-laws are a bounty on one species of industry, and a restraint on another species. They force a costly cultiva tion, and prdsibit our merchants and manufacturers from exchanging the produce of their labour for the produce of corn grown at a less cost than on our own soil. They wake it necessary to labour more to obtain the same value. They also compel men to labour in a less profitable manner than they otherwise would. To what extent, by this mis direction of the industry of the community, they inflict on it a pure loss it is impossible to say. But, whatever it may be, that amount would be saved and shared between the capitalists and labourers, without abstracting one farthing from any other class. We are far, however, from saying that the abolition would not take away something from some classes. It would lower the rent of land, in the first instance ; it would make tithes less valuable ; and it would abstract a very con siderable sum from the land-owners and the tithe-owners. The farmers, as capitalists, would be benefited by it ; as land-owners they would participate in foe loss of their class. But as land-owners they share in the monstrous wrong committed by the Corn-law, of taxing the people to enrich that class, and they must p..y the penalty of their unjust cupidity. In the long-run, indeed, even the land-owners would be benefited by the abolition, for rent increases in proportion as the population increases, and the population is sure to increase up to the greatest amount of obtainable food. We presume, by the Herald not having replied to our observations of last Saturday, to disprove its two fallacies about the abolition of Corn-laws " putting half the land out of cultivation," and " confiscating all the farmers' capital," that it gives up those assertions, and is consiaced that no other classes would be even temporarily injured by the abolition of the Corn-laws, than the land-owners and the tithe-owners. Now, neither of these classes as such can be said to belong to the industrious or productive classes. They live, in fact, on the labour of others; and it is incum bent on the Herald, the boasting advocate of the in terests of British industry in every shape, to prove how tl:e Corn-laws, which eutteil and strarg'e our manufacturers, which diminish the wages .of labour benea our in lustry by enriching the priests and the land owners. But while we exclude the little taxed corn of Poland from our country, we admit the almost wholly un taxed corn of Ireland ; and thus the English labourers and manufacturers are taxed to enrich the landlords and the priests of Ireland. Now we are free to say that the whole compass of human history supplies us with no example of two classes of men more useless than these, or even more noxious to the genoral welfare. To tax the people's bread to enrich such rnm as my Lord BANDON, or my Lord RODEN, or any other extirpating, bigotted, idle, Orange Lord, or tLe Archb'shop of Anmacir, or the Rector of Itathcormac, is a monstrous outrage on common sense, as well as on justice and humanity. But as the corn of Ireland . sTe - TreS in theifo7ls - pcii); ii7LieTi-ITIF-Cdrra law gives of our markets, that the people here are taxed to enrich the title owners and landowners of Ireland, is as :hat:Awe and two make four. "We tax (said Mr. BILANFILL at the meeting at Chelmsford on the 15th ult.) we tax the poor man in various ways—we tax him in effect in his bread, for as a landlord I could rot other.vise get the price I do far my corn, and I cannot afford it for le .s : this r If treQuicc for my corn baclum I am taxed to raise its, what right ha's the Clergyman to 605., for he is not - taxed for it ? (Cheers.) I mention this here because if I were to broach such a principle as that at our agricultural meetings, • I should be hissed out of the room." Thus, according to the landowner, the bread of the poor it taxed to enrich the titbeowner as well as the landowner, and the land owners and titheowners of Ireland as well as those of England. We require the great advocate of British in dustry and of the labouring classes to show how either is benefited by a tax which enriches only idle landowners and noxious titheowners, including the landowners and the titheowners of Ireland. Lord Joitti RUSSELL has been blamed for allowing COURTEN AY, alias Mad THOM, to be removed from the Lunatic Asylum in which he had been confined. The KNATCHBULLS, and others of the Magisterial breed in Kent, in bringing this charge against the Noble Lord, are trying to shift a burden from their own shoulders to his, for it is as clear as any thing can be, that but for the supineness of the Magistrates the lamentable occurrence, which cost so many men their lives, would not have taken place. We think the Secretary of State for the Horne Department ought, however, to be on his guard against subjecting him self to a similar charge on much stronger grounds. If, after the example which we have had of the fatal effects of madmen's influence over the minds of our ignorant peasantry, men are permitted to go at large who are not only follow ing in his footsteps, but may justly be considered as parti cipators in his crime, a heavy responsibility will rest with the Noble Lord. Is Lord STANHOPE a man fit for any other place than a place of confinement? Ought he not to be prevented from pursuing farther his extravagant and dangerous course ? Advice upon such a person is thrown away. He has shown himself utterly incapable of appreci ating either the counsel of his friends, or the ridicule of his enemies. Nothing comes home to his bewildered under standing but a Poor-law grievance —in that form, the greatest falsehoods and the grossest absurdities find ready admittance. It is enough that they be dressed up in such a form as to excite the people to resist the law. We verily believe that nothing would give this unfortunate Nobleman more satisfaction than to see England in one universal con flagration, provided it were caused by opposition to the Poor-law. He is as completely under the influence of mo nomania as any man that ever crossed the threshold of Bedlam. The vagaries of Lord STANHOPE on Tuesday night in the House of Lords were of a piece with his usual conduct. He presented two petitions from two itinerant clergymen— men who, instead of attending to their spiritual duties at home are vagabondizing about the country, and putting evil into the minds of the populace—respecting the abuses of the Poor-law, and made a cackling about them such as never was heard even from him. And what was the amount of these mighty grievances ? One of the parties so deeply injured was a fellow who refused to allow any thing out of his wages to his wife and children, and who was im- prisoned, not by virtue of the new, but of the old law! This man was so conscious of his misconduct that he bad not the face to petition in his own person. The impu dence, however, that he wanted was not wanting in the clerical tramp. The Rev. Mr. MABERLY, the Cambridge shire agitator, soon cooked up a nice mess of grievance out of this worthy person's case, and sent it to the Poor -law grievance manufactory, preside& over by Lord STANHOPE, in the form of a petition, in his own (MatiEaves) name. The House, it will be seen, refused to receive it. Th e other petition was from the Rev. Agitator DEWDNEY, and a few of his dupes in Portsmouth, complaining of the Board of Guardians. DEWDNEY, be it remarked, was re jected by the rate-payers at the last election of Guardians, in consequence of his previous conduct while in office. Mortified vanity is the cause of his spite against that body. The Duke of RICHMOND soon demolished the assertion s both of the Noble Lord and of his clerical " squad," as he very appropriately denominated t he reverend firebrands who are making themselves so busy in a bad cause. Whatever effect Lord STANHOPE'S Quixotism may pro (!uce upon the ignorant rabble, it cannot be slid to have in jured the Poor-law Amendment Act in the opinion of the reasonable and thinking part of the community. On the contrary, it has done much to establish in the public mind the conviction that the Act is produc'ng the most Lene tici:d effects on the condition a-41 character of the poor, THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY, JULY 5, 1838. inasmuch at it has been the means of eliciting strong testimonies in its favour from many men of all ranks and parties who have had the best possible opportuni ties of judging of its actual working. As an example of this we need only quote the following passage from the speech of Lord HARDWICK, on Tuesday night :—" As to the general 1 effect of the Poor-law Amendment Act in the county (Cambridgeshire), in which he lived, it had worked much to the benefit of the lower classes ; so much so, that the efforts of Mr. MABERLY and other persons in the neigh bourhood of his residence to induce the poor to resist the law had totally failed. He was satisfied that the more the working of the law was examined, the more it would be found to tend to the benefit of the community at large, especially of the working classes." The high Church party will discover, when too late, the great error they committed in not settling the Irish tithe question in the first session it came before Parliament. Every year since worse terms have been offered to the Clergy, and during the course of that period the hostility of the people to this tribute has been so excited by vexa tious tithe processes and bloody affrays at tithe collections, and, finally, by the utter rejection of the only principle on which it could be settled amicably, that they will not now compound with any Government, either Whig or Tory, for even one half of the amount that would have been willingly paid ten years age. The cottiers and even the tenants generally believe that the tithe comes out of their pockets, the landlords will not have it thrown upon them, because they know the difficulty of screwing up rents already exor bitant ; and what with self-interest, bad feeling towards the Church, the example of Scotland, and the conscious ness of power which the Irish people acquired by the result of the Clare election, we have a complication of difficulties which the present Ministry, and still more a Tory Ministry, should it ever be formed, must regard with anxiety and fear. All the advantage is on the side of the kids people. Their leaders in Parliament offered to come to reasonable terms with the British Legislature, and these terms have been repeatedly rejected by the House of Peers. A mak). rity of the Commons—the guardians of the public purse— .believed the people right and the Peers wrong ; and will they lend their assistance to coerce a whole nation who may have been driven to improper extremities by treatment to which, whether as regards municipal rights, or the in sults offered to their religion, neither England nor Scotland would for even one year submit? Suppose a change of Ministry and a new Parliament, with a small majority on their side, would Sir ROBERT PEEL or the Duke of WEL LINGTON attempt to force the payment of tithes, and advise her MAJESTY to adopt measures which, in the present excitement on the subject, would inevitably lead to a civil war ? And suppose they should advise her MAJESTY to take such a step, would the hlouse of Commons vote money to carry fire and sword into Ireland, because the people of that country claim equa rights with Englishmen and Scotehmen? We are as incredulous on both these points, as we are on one whirls most people will consider of all things in the world the most improbabi.e, that a young and virtuous QueEts, whose ruling desire is to be beloved by all her subjects, would signalize the commencement of her reign by making war on seven millions of her people ; and even admitting all these three supposed events possible, the next inquiry what is the chance of success ? Ire land is very dintent now from what she was in 1797. There is a unity of purpose in all her pro ceedings which she never before exhibited, and if Scot- I. tnd just emerged from barbarism could, with loss thin ene-half of her population engaged in the cause, as sert her inlependf nee, and take the tithes from the rsinseopal clergy, is it improbable that Ireland with her vast population, urged on hya priesthood possessed of poever little leis than that welded by the leaders of the Cameronians and Covenanterp, will be able in these days of reform to follow her cs.avnple end awn if she should fail, over what could lictr.rs rrk)ico ? A brave people vanquished —vast treav,urcs needlessly expended, and endless 10-s of life—all because a certain portion - of the British people thought that Protetantizm would be insecure if our Catholic bre thren in Ireland received for the purposes of education a sai:.ll portion cf those funds which Catholics originally possessed. We have vver contended for the appropriation claust., and for the payment cf the Irish priests, because • thtlac _c.,-.r..at:tons were just, zni essential to the peace and security cf The' House of Lards, and the 111- adt ised friends df the Protestant Church, have thought otherwise, and on their heads be the consequences. The Paris journals of Tuesday, the whole of which we have received, contain no intelligence of more than ordi nary interest. On Monday the Chamber of Peers adopted the Bill granting 200,000 francs for celebrating the eighth anniversary of the revolution of July. Eleven votes were given against the Bill, and eighty-nine for it—a no qucs tionabla proof of the weakness of the Royalists in the Chamber of Peers. It was well observed by M. Du- BOUCHAGE on this occasion that the noblest celebration of such an anniversary would consist less in shows, fireworks, and military reviews on the part of the Government, than in liberating the objects of it from the surveillance of the po lice, and granting an amnesty to all persons sentenced to imprisonment or exile for political offences. Another Bill, granting 10,460,000 francs for the completion of certain public works, was voted almost unanimously. When its adop tion was proposed, M. de TASCHER rose and complained of the conduct of the Government in perniitting such works to be car ried on on Sundays, to the disgrace of France, and the ruin of the moral feelings of the people. The Minister of Justice contended that there was a law to compel the observance of the Sabbath ; but that it rested, and ought to rest with the Government to decide upon the right and expediency of enforcing it. M. DE DREUX BREZE, a Royalist and a rigid Catholic, protested against the desecration of the Sabbath by the Government. On Sundays, public works were carried on with even more show of haste than on week days ; and it was notorious, that reviews of the Na tional G uar d s an d troops o f the line were, in nine eases out of t en , fi xe d f or t h e very hours on S un d ays during which Divine Service was celebrating in the churches. We quite agree with the Noble Peer, that the Sabbath is not sufficiently observed in France. We would not com pel men to attend churches —we would not force them to look gloomy and discontented, by prevent ing them from obtaining the accommodation of an omnibus, or a cheerful glass of liquor—we would not exclude them from the pleasures of a care-relaxing stroll in the green fields ; but we would protest against any in ducement being held out to them to pursue their ordinary avocations on that day, and we would do so, simply for the sake of the poor themselves. All unnecessary toil should be carefully suspended in order that the poor may enjoy the Sabbath, and glorify GOD, who oidained them a necessary period for recreation and rest. Protect the poor in the en joyment of the Sabbath by all means—it is the toil-worn labourer's inheritance ; but presume not to dictate the manner in which he is to observe it. There begins the evil of modern Sabbath legislation. The Journal des Debals has a long article on th e present political aspect of affairs in the East, the tendency o f w hi c h is to show that France and England ought to resolve forth with upon the steps necessary to be taken in the event of a rupture between the PORTE and the Paella of EGYPT, in order to counteract the designs of Russia.

We answer that we do not recommend the acceptance of this or any other treaty, the object of which is the separa tion of the kingdom of the Netherlands into two distinct states. In our opinion there can be no greatness, independence, or prosperity for Belgium, except in its complete fusion with Holland. The formation of the kingdom of Belgium is, ac cording to ma, a false conception—a real misfortune—if we compare the results with the advantages offered by the king-, dom of the Netherlands. But as there are degrees of evil, we, who arc neither fools nor traitors, would choose the least evil, and if fGrced to decide between two political combinations, both of which we dislike, we should of course greatly prefer Belgium, in its present provisional state, to Belgium, accord ing to the 24 articles. We therefore declare, without reservation, that we should think it a great misfortune if the 21 articles were accepted, or forced upon 113.—JourTzal du Commerce d'Anvcrs.

We learn the troops to be employed will not be Prussian troops, but con tingents of Bavaria, of the Bth and 9th corps of the army. It is said that the Governments of some of the States of the Con federation have already been called upon to take measures for the march of these troops ; and it is added that a final resolu tion on the subject will not be taken till after the meeting of the Monarchs end Ministers, which is to take place first in Bolte:nia, and afterwards at Johannisberg. ...

Letters from Constantinople, dated the 13th of June, have been received, which state that on the 7th, RESCIIID PACHA, Minister for Foreign affairs, had a long interview with the French and English Ambassadors. The result was a relaxation in the preparations for the departure of the Fleet. Baron RUCKMAN the Russian Charge d' Af fabs, returned to Constantinople from Wallachia on the 12th, having succeeded in putting an end to all indications of patriotism in that Pfincipality. The next step will be to declare Wallachia incorporated with the Russian Em pire. On the 10th an English Courier, with despatcheS for Lord PONSONEY, arrived at Constantinople. - The following are the sanatory regulations which have been recently adopted by the Ottoman Porte 1.

Every ship coming from places where the plague had not appeared, and which has had no case on board, shall perform a quarantine of five days. 7. Ships shall perform their quarantine at Gallipoli, or the roads of Constantinople, according to the state of the wind, but in every case they shall have a sanatory guard on board from the time of their arrival in the Dardanelles. 8. If, dur ing the quarantine, any cases of plague shall take place on board, they may be landed, with the necessary precau tions, and placed in buildings appropriated to that purpose. 9 The sanatory expenses shall be charged to each ship, and calculated according to the scales used in European establishments. A letter from Cairo states that Mehemet Alli has entered into negociations with a Polish general, with a view of taking into his service a number of Polish officers, especially for the artillery and engineering departments, and for the inspection of the arsenals. GRAND REVIEW OF THE ARTIL LERY AT WOOLWICH.-(THIS DAY.) For some years past the village of Woolwich and its vici nities, Plumstead, 'Wickham, and Greenwich, have not pre sented such an appearance as they have this day, by the grand review of the Artillery on Plumstead Marshes. As early as six o'clock, the above-mentioned places were a scene of bustle, and almost crowded ; and as the time approached, the roads leading to Woolwich Common were completely impassable by elegant equipages and pedestrians; the latter were discharged by thousands from the steamers and railway ; the weather was extremely fine, and not withstanding the late heavy rains the ground was perfectly level, and pleasant to walk upon. A little before eleven o'clock the following distinguished personages arrived in their carriages at the Arsenal, and were received by the venerable Governor and Officers of that establishment :_His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, Prince George of Cambridge, her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge, Duke of Nassau, Duke de Nemours, his Serene Highness Prince Christian of Holstein-Glucksburg, Prince Tursten burg ; his Excellency Tareen Effendi, Ottoman Ambas sador; Count Pozzo di Borgo, Russian Ambassador ; Mar shal Soult and suite ; Duke of Buccleuch, Duke of Rut land, the Prussian Ambassador ; the Duke of Palmella, Ambassador Extraordinary from the Queen of Portugal ; Count Lowenhielm, Ambassador Extraordinary f ro m th e King of Sweden , ; Prince Schwarzenburg ; the Greek Mi nister ; the Saxon Minister, and, in fact all the distinguished individuals now in London, as representatives of the Foreign countries, with numbers of the noblemen and gentry. Shortly after the hour of eleven, the review commenced in right earnest, on the Common, n hich was lined with spectators. The space allotted to the military for displaying their evolu tions, which were accomplished with the utmost precision, cc cupied the whole of the Common near the river, to the extent of nearly 2,000 feet in breath ; the movements of the men attracted Horse Artillery, un i ver sal admiration, pa r ti cu l ar ly th e Foreign Ambassad ors , w ho appeared highly delighted. The review had not con cluded when our correspondent left Woolwich. Every pre caution was taken to prevent accidents. No yessel or cra f t of any description svere allowed to come up or down th e r i ver during the proceedings. The ground was kept by a party and their conduct was extremely praiseworthy. CORONATION DAY AT CORYTON. On the day of the Coronation preloaraions were made for all the parishioners of Coryton to celebrate the event agree ably to the directions given by the prop. ietor, Sir Robert New man,againowing Baronet. Unfortunately they exceed e d the intention, by having cannon , which were fired at various ti mes d ur i ng t h e day. A , a ft n e re explosion dinnersion tookt relate, killed f our per sons, and wounded many otherg, of whom t h ree have since died; the rest arc exFected to survive. C or y ton is a few miles from Tavistpek. Yesterday afternoon a woman, v:bose husband lives to view Westminster ey ; the crowd w as very great, and the wo at Mr. Lelvis.3, the potato salesman, of Ki ng - s t reet, man was hustled and robbed of a bag containin g go sovereigns ; her Seveo Dials, went husband was with her at the time, and (he robbery was not discovered until they reached home. She hal hastily placed the money in her pocket on a neighbour suddenly enterhg the room, and being touch elated at the idea of visiting the abbey, forgot the circumstance of having so much money on her person. THE GOLDEN ~ SUN:' We have this day exhibited for the public gaze at our office window the edition of the Golden Sun, which for a gorgeous innovation on the art of printing exceeds all the conceptions we ever had of grandeur in that Science.—The Cork Standard. The Sun of Thursday shone with golden rays ; or, to drop metaphor, the London journal of that name appeared with one side (two pages) printed in gold, and in the centre of one page a beautiful medallion portrait of the Queen, in the new style of engraving said to be invented by M. Alex ander Collett. The whole formed an example at once of the rapid strides of art and of the great exertions which the proprietors of the journal, aided by several eminent houses in London, must have mule, in order to present the broad sheet in so new a dress to their readers—Manchester Guardian. _ Although many of the papers have contained "picture puffs," with a likeness of the Queen, most of which, how ever, bear more resemblance to a Chinese image, one of Juggernaut's idols, or some other equally nondescript freak of the imagination, we must make honourable men ti on of The San newspaper, which was printed in gold, and con tained a likeness of Victoria, engraved in the new style. It is one of the most spirited and successful efforts in the whole range of newspaper competition. The pri n ti ng i s clear and distiact, ct, and the engraving is a good likeness and a pretty specimen of the art.—She f field Iris. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.-(THIS DAY.) DEAL, JULY 4.—Wind, W. S.

The British funds were heavy in the course of yesterday, and Consols were done at 95 , . but late in the afternoon they rallied, and closed at 951 for the Account. The payment of the dividend at the Bank of England will commence on Monday next, when nearly eight millions sterling will be distributed to the public. This considerable amount of capital must render money plentiful, both for commercial af fairs as well as for speculations in the various funds which have been for some time past in a very inactive state. Consols opened this morning at 9541 Account. Reduced, 94i 1.

Anne IPII, a charwoman, was chargcd ,ith stealing a silt' r butter-boat, the prope; ty of Mr. George Csatris, proprietor of the Piazza Coffee.houic, Covent-garden. It appeared that the prisoner had' been employed in the prosecutor's establishment for twenty-five years, and no suspi cion had been entertained of her dishonesty during that time. On Tuesday last she offered the butter-boat in pledge in Great Queen-street, and the pawnbroker observing the initials erased detained it until an owner could be found. Information of the circumstance was given to Sergeant Pocock, and the prisoner was subsequently taken into custody in the Seven-dials. The prisoner said she was driven by distress to commit tl.e offence ; and at the instance of the prosecutor, who requested to have a lenient punishment inflicted upon her, in considers tion of her previous good character and her present distressed condition, she was sent to the House of Correction for two months. NEW MARRIAGE ACT. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Stu,—lt has, for some time past, been attempted on the part of inconsistent reverers of " the law," to cast an um brageous slur upon persons marrying according to the provi sions of the New Marriage Act. Such studied insult to conscientious feeling, and aspersion upon a statute which comes in aid of morel liberty, while it constrains confession of its dictate, in the inseparable mortal union of husband and wife, needs both reprobation and coun. teraction, of a tendency to vindicate both that law and the holy estate which it affirms and guards. Alihough the Registrar. General has recorded his decision that parties who prefer marrying at the District Registrar's office, may there solemnize their contract of wedlock by a reli gious ceremony, yet he has declined issuing an official circu lar, for the more certain dHusion of this information through out the length and breadth of the land. I therefore most heartily desire, through your very extended medium and favour, to make the right and legality of using Christian ministration for the celaration of marriage at the Registrar's office known to the public ; and conclude by expressing the hope that no instance of an irreligious union will henceforth occur. I am, Sir, your's faithfully, July 4,183 S, - W. F. G. WALDRON. APPLICATION OF STEAM POWER TO AGRICULTURE. 'lhe writer of this note is prepared to show how the land may be ploughed and wrought with steam, by means of an engine in vented for the purpose. He came from Scotland for the purpose of laying it before the first meeting of the Agri: ul tural Seciety here, on the 27th June last ; but as that oppor tunity was not given him, nor any measures taken for receiving it in a manner agreeably to his wishes, he is now anxious for some other means of divulgement. Under the present system, the land is wrought with anirrtel power horn its own produce, which is limited; whereas, with steam power, it would be wrought from the produce of the mines and minerals, which may be drawn upon to any ex tent. The vast quantity of corn consumed by work horses would then be brought to market ; while the hay, straw, and grass consumed by them would be applied to the rearing and feeding of milk-cows and fat cattle, so as greatly to increase the quantity of all kinds of provisions. The introduction or steam power would also give the farmers great advantages in ploughing and working the land more thoroughly, as well as in reference to the seasons, for under the present system they are often kept ploughing when they ought to be sowing, fer want of sufficient power. The introduction of steam power into husbandry will therefore gradually open up a new a n d vast mine of national wealth from the land presently under cultivation ; and besides proving a source of wealth to the pi o prietors of estates and those engaged in the cultivation of the soil, it will give head to the rising commerce of this country from resources based upon its own soil. It is hoped the inventor will not be left to return without having an opportunity of making kncsvn his plan, in such a manner as to secure for him the honour and ad vantage of his invention ; and if the Citizens of London will appoint two or three gentlemen to meet with an Engineer, to decide on its practical utility, he will be most happy to lay it before them. It will then fall to be considered what measures ought to be taken to bring this mode of culture into use ; and it is hoped Societies will be formed in the large towns for that purpose ; for if they want plenty of meat they must put their hand to the plough, and the writer of this notice pledges himself to produce one fit for the purpose. If the desired opportunity is to be given, notice may be 14t with the Editor of The Sun. W. 11. CORN AVERAGES.
